Statement
I’m ceramist and tile designer. The idea of these sculptures came into my mind during designing periodic wall tiles. I did experiments with regular triangle and square based meshes. I developed these to 3D tiles, in a way that I’ve span them around their axis so I got rotation axis objects and that were halved. My starting point is always the form and I choose the material to that. At this point I changed to wood. My first woodwork was the “Cube illusion” box. The final complex product is assembled together from bespoke wooden revolutions, manufactured by copy lathe. The 2D templates for the individual elements were CNC cut. These separate revolutions are then fitted together by hand and fixed. This box can be viewed on my webpage.
